    // you are :-)
    //
    // Some MethodDefs can be associated with more than one MethodDesc.
    // This can happen because:
    //      (1) The method is an instance method in a struct, which
    //          can be called with either an unboxed "this" pointer or
    //          a "boxed" this pointer..  There is a different MethodDesc for
    //          these two cases.
    //      (2) The method is a generic method.  There is one primary
    //          MethodDesc for each generic method, called the GenericMethodDefinition.
    //          This is the one stored in the vtable.  New MethodDescs will
    //          be created for instantiations according to the scheme described
    //          elsewhere in this file.
    // There are also various other stubs associated with MethodDesc, but these stubs
    // do not result in new MethodDescs.
    //
    // All of the above MethodDescs are called "associates" of the primary MethodDesc.
    // Note that the primary MethodDesc for an instance method on a struct is
    // the one that accepts an unboxed "this" pointer.
    //
    // FindOrCreateAssociatedMethodDesc is the _primary_ routine
    // in the codebase for getting an associated MethodDesc from a primary MethodDesc.
    // You should treat this routine as a black box, i.e. just specify the right
    // parameters and it will do all the hard work of finding the right
    // MethodDesc for you.
    //
    // This routine can be used for "normal" MethodDescs that have nothing
    // to do with generics.  For example, if you need an BoxedEntryPointStub then
    // you may call this routine to get it.  It may also return
    // the Primary MethodDesc itself if that MethodDesc is suitable given the
    // parameters.
    //
    // NOTE: The behaviour of this method is not thoroughly defined
    // if pPrimaryMD is not really a "primary" MD.  Primary MDs are:
    //     1. Primary MDs are:never a generic method instantiation,
    //        but are instead the "uninstantiated" generic MD.
    //     2. Primary MDs are never instantiating stubs.
    //     3. Primary MDs are never BoxedEntryPointStubs.
    //
    // We assert if cases (1) or (2) occur.  However, some places in the
    // code pass in an BoxedEntryPointStub when pPrimaryMD is a virtual/interface method on
    // a struct.  These cases are confusing and should be rooted

    // of correctness to pass in the corresponding non-unboxing MD.

//
//  001 --> GenericMethodDefinition
//  010 --> UnsharedMethodInstantiation
//  011 --> SharedMethodInstantiation
//  100 --> WrapperStubWithInstantiations - and unboxing or instantiating stub
//
// A SharedMethodInstantiation descriptor extends MethodDesc
// with a pointer to dictionary layout and a representative instantiation.
//
// A GenericMethodDefinition is the instantiation of a
// generic method at its formals, used for verifying the method and
// also for reflection.
//
// A WrapperStubWithInstantiations extends MethodDesc with:
//    (1) a method instantiation
//    (2) an "underlying" method descriptor.
// A WrapperStubWithInstantiations may be placed in a MethodChunk for
// a method table which specifies an exact instantiation for the class/struct.
// A WrapperStubWithInstantiations may be either
// an BoxedEntryPointStub or an exact-instantiation stub.
//
// Exact-instantiation stubs are used as extra type-context parameters. When
// used as an entry, instantiating stubs pass an instantiation
// dictionary on to the underlying method.  These entries are required to
// implement ldftn instructions on instantiations of shared generic
// methods, as the InstantiatingStub's pointer does not expect a
// dictionary argument; instead, it passes itself on to the shared
// code as the dictionary.
//
// An UnsharedMethodInstantiation contains just an instantiation.
// These are fully-specialized wrt method and class type parameters.
// These satisfy (!IMD_IsGenericMethodDefinition() &&
//                !IMD_IsSharedByGenericMethodInstantiations() &&
